Trial summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of a miniaturized sleep apnea test, called NightOwl. The system consists of a sensor placed on the fingertip and a cloud-based analytics software. The sensor acquires accelerometer and photoplethysmographic data. Read more about this study

About this study

The objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of a miniaturized sleep apnea test, called NightOwl. The system consists of a sensor placed on the fingertip and a cloud-based analytics software. The sensor acquires accelerometer and photoplethysmographic data. The software derives actigraphy from the former, and blood oxygen saturation and peripheral arterial tone (PAT), among other features, from the latter. In order to assess NightOwl's performance, the investigators will compare the apnea hypopnea index (AHI) estimate, defined as the number of respiratory events per hour of sleep, derived by the NightOwl system, to the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) obtained from manual analysis of the polysomnography (PSG), which is the gold standard for sleep apnea diagnosis. This study will be performed in a sleep lab environment.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
PSG and NightOwlExperimentalDuring the study, for each execution day, all patients that have been scheduled for a PSG will be presented with the informed consent form. All recruited patients shall be a part of the study during which they wear the NightOwl Sensor while undergoing the PSG exam.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The Evaluation of the Level of Agreement (Classification Accuracy) Between Patient Categorization

    The evaluation of the level agreement (classification accuracy) between patient categorization (into sleep apnea severity categories) obtained by the NightOwl and those obtained by the PSG. This measure is calculated by dividing the number of participants on which both NightOwl and the PSG agree on the sleep apnea severity category by the total number of participants.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 month.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing NightOwl in people with Sleep Apnea, run by Ectosense NV at 4 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The Evaluation of the Level of Agreement (Classification Accuracy) Between Patient Categorization (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 month.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Sep 2022.
